Synopsis

Book Description:

"George Hunt Williamson was a pioneering UFO researcher who developed many of the themes of modern UFOology. Williamson invented the concept of 'walk-ins,' who he called 'The Wanderers.' Walk-ins are normal humans who are actually (unknown to themselves) reincarnated 'Space Brothers.' Williamson also worked with George Adamski, another UFO pioneer. One of the centerpieces of this book is a labored interpretation of symbols in footprints left when Venusians had a close encounter with Adamski in the California desert.

Williamson has a somewhat opaque and very inflated resume. While his official bibliography lists numerous academic credentials and honors, Williamson actually dropped out of college, purchased some of his degrees from a diploma mill and invented the rest. He also claims to be an expert on Southwestern Native Americans, which is strange, because I've never seen any papers by him on that topic. Despite the attempt to reinvent himself as a bona fide scientist, Williamson repeatedly disparages the scientific method in this book, calling scientists 'The Guessers.'

Even murkier is his association with the Nazi William Dudley Pelley, whom he worked for briefly in the early 1950s. That said, it is difficult to spot any explicit trace of extreme right-wing politics in this book. Williamson believed that most of the aliens visiting Earth look like humans (or are humans), are benign, and preach a telepathic message of peace and brotherhood. In this book at least, the amoral, almond-eyed 'grey' aliens who conduct hostile abduction of humans for medical experimentation and mutilate livestock are nowhere to be found.

About the Author

About the Author:

"George Hunt Williamson (December 9, 1926 - January 1986), aka Michael d'Obrenovic and Brother Philip, was one of the "four guys named George" among the mid-1950s contactees. The others were George Adamski, George King, and George Van Tassel.

Williamson, born in Chicago, Illinois, to parents George Williamson and Bernice Hunt, was mystically inclined as a teenager, but transferred some of his occult enthusiasm to flying saucers in the late 1940s. In early 1951 Williamson was expelled on academic grounds from the University of Arizona. Having read William Dudley Pelley's book Star Guests (1950), Williamson worked for a while for Pelley's cult organization, helping to put out its monthly publication Valor. Pelley had generated huge quantities of communications with "advanced intelligences" via automatic writing, and very clearly was an immediate inspiration to Williamson, who combined his fascination with the occult and with flying saucers by trying to contact flying saucer crews with a home-made Ouija board. After hearing about the flying-saucer-based religious cult of George Adamski, perhaps through Pelley, Williamson and his wife, and fellow saucer believers Alfred and Betty Bailey, became regular visitors to Adamski's commune at Palomar Gardens and eventually members of Adamski's Theosophy-spinoff cult. They witnessed Adamski "telepathically" channelling and tape-recording messages from the friendly humanoid Space Brothers who inhabited every solar planet. The Willamsons, the Baileys and two other Adamski disciples became the "witnesses" to Adamski's supposed meeting with Orthon, a handsome blond man from Venus, near Desert Center, California on November 18, 1952. In fact the "witnesses" experienced nothing more than Adamski telling them to wait and stay put while he walked over a hill, then came back into view an hour later, with a preliminary story of his experiences--- a story subsequently greatly changed for book publication in Flying Saucers Have Landed (1953), as Williamson himself later pointed out."
